ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty little plant.
ReplyDeleteYou're so good at art and craft. Wonderful creations!
ReplyDeleteHow artistic!!
ReplyDeleteThank everyone that visited. I looked it up Kelleyn and says this plant was used as medicinal by the Native Americans so must not be poisonous. There is another that has orange berries that I think I've heard is poisonous, but not sure what it is called or if it is really poison. Appreciate all who stop by Pictorial Tuesday and comment.
